My Angel

A few years ago
An angel brought me into this world.
And peace was all I felt
In her loving embrace, as I sat curled.

To step into a world so big
I was so scared.
But it was with that angel’s support
That I dared.

Strong she has always stood
Trying to protect me from all evil.
Her unshakable confidence in me
Gives me the strength to go ahead with what I will.

Today I understand her scoldings
Were nothing but love in disguise.
And seeing me improve she smiled
And for me, there couldn’t have been a bigger prize.

Since always, that angel has taken pains for me
Stood by me through thick and thin.
I can’t imagine my life without her
If not for her, I don’t know where I’d been.

I admire her for her strength.
I admire her for her patience.
For showering her unconditional love on me,
Even after bearing all of my impatience.

I wish to be like her some day.
To make her feel proud of me.
To fulfill all the dreams
That she has seen for me.

Today, I thank that angel
For her love and blessing
For being my support
For being my star guiding

For providing me, all these years,
With her protective cover
She is my inspiration,
MY ANGEL, MY MOTHER.
